Just got scammed on my bd lol💀 Well really I scammed myself. It was for the one time I wasn't paying attention and decided to cut corners. What is the scam? Address Poisoning There is a scam going around where an address that has a similar ending to one that you normally send to or receive from, sends you a few pennies (both addresses ended with ...sns). If you are not paying attention, you will click an old transaction and end up copying the wrong address. This just happened and I sent 40 SOL ($6,700). This one stings. Scammers think of intricate flows that people will go through, most of the time not working, but it just takes one fish (I was the fish). Definitely hurts, but just a reminder that in a world of magic internet money, you always need to be careful. 99% of time you're safe, you're smart, but it just takes one time to get hurt. Remember: ⁍ Move slow to go fast. ⁍ Double check everything. ⁍ Spread your assets among multiple wallets. ⁍ No matter how long or good you think you are, a temporary lapse can cost you. ⁍ Good luck, have fun. It's the one or two times you slip up, where you get caught. Hopefully this post is the last you see of this bullsh*t. #BitEagleNews #AddressPoisoning
